Mikel Arteta does not want Arsenal to “feel sorry for ourselves” as his side, carrying a significant injury list, prepare to meet the league leaders Liverpool on Sunday.

There was little joy for Arteta to share when discussing the injured trio of Bukayo Saka, Riccardo Calafiori, and Jurriën Timber in Friday’s press conference. “We’re going to do our very best to somehow have them available, but obviously it’s very, very uncertain,” he said.
